Hope everyone had a nice holiday. I brought two growlers to the In-Laws with me and they were a big hit with the brother in law's gathered there.

TG, a gift certificate for RedHook and a new RedHook tap handle helped make my Christmas merry. The wife also increased my supply of English pub glasses. All in all a great day. Beer, not only for drinking but makes a great gift as well.

my wife didnt know what to get me, I told her to give me money for the "g" coupler and nice glass mugs I bought. she pissed and moaned about contributing to the drinking thing. I told her I had my eye on a nice gold chain for me, only $400, she gave me the money for the beer stuff real fast lmfao.

I poured a bottled beer into one of those glasses today (left over from my Christmas party) and was sad to see all the space left at the top. Had to open a second one just to feel fulfilled.

yep, 12oz domestic beers into a 20 oz. imperial unit glass will leave a bit of headroom on the top lol.I just treated myself to an "s" coupler and a wood pub style tap handle from MM. I was going to get into all the tap handles from the breweries, a brewermania type of thing, but decided why? Im good to go with the suds.
